-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The curtain has risen on 2010.
In any kind of challenge we may encounter,
the beginning is absolutely crucial.
Take the initiative, make the first move.
The time to act towards total victory is now!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"It is the heart that is important. No matter how earnestly Nichiren prays for you, if you lack faith, it will be like trying to set fire to wet tinder. Spur yourself to muster the power of faith."

(The Strategy of the Lotus Sutra - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 1000)
Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, Jan. 4th, 2010

January 4th -10th, 2010
---- WORDS OF THE WEEK ----
In order to make this whole year a complete victory
let's earnestly chant daimoku,
courageously engage in dialogue,
and advance harmoniously in wonderful unity.
Each and every day,
let's persistently challenge ourselves to win!
